HIIT Sauna Spin
Posting this mostly so I can have a personal note of it but also to brag a little 🥹
I was out for two months and came back with a new record!! Giving your body a rest really is effective! But maybe don't do two months 💀 I had my camera open bc I glanced down and saw it happening but I kept going so it was literally all a blur lmfao
*I forgot to mention, if you've been following me or have any interest, this will mark 1 year of sauna workouts because i decided last Oktoberfest, after realizing how many bratwursts I'd eaten in a day, that I had to change something. I've lost 30lbs but that's not important. I wanted to say that when I started, I wasn't getting 3 miles in for entire sessions (which run 15 minutes each). And then I was making like 2.8 miles/15mins and it just kept going down. My last best was 3mi/12.5mins and yes every second is improvement when it comes to your heart!
Sorry that was a whole entire yap

High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is a popular workout method known for its effectiveness in burning calories and improving fitness levels in a short amount of time. Combining HIIT with sauna sessions not only enhances recovery but also amplifies fat loss and cardiovascular health. Saunas can aid in muscle relaxation, reduce soreness, and potentially increase metabolism post-exercise. A study published in the Journal of Human Kinetics found that sauna bathing leads to greater endurance performance, increased muscle recovery, and improved cardiovascular function. Saunas also promote detoxification through sweating and have been linked to reduced stress levels, making them a perfect complement to the intensity of HIIT workouts. If you’re considering integrating sauna sessions into your fitness routine, aim for 15-20 minute sessions after intense workouts for maximum benefits. Make sure to hydrate adequately before and after your sauna sessions to maintain electrolytes and avoid dehydration. With consistent practice and the right approach, you can achieve significant improvements in your fitness journey.
